A cat is able to quickly recover balance from unstable posture. To observe the balance recovery procedure of the cat, an impulse is applied to the cat while walking on a narrow bridge. We find that it rotates its tail toward the falling direction. In our previous research, the balance recovery procedure is analyzed based on the law of the angular momentum conservation and then a key equation is derived to maintain the balance. However, it did not consider the gravity, so the performance is not good. In this paper, a new dynamic model is proposed using the Lagrangian mechanics. In the method, the gravity is included in the potential energy. Through the proposed dynamic model, controlling the balance of a walking robot is possible.

Straodown intertial navigation system(SDINS) is a navigational instrument necessary to guide and control a free vehicle. Dynamically Tuned Gyroscope(DTG) which is widely applied to SDINS convers a wide dynamic range and is simple and small. In study, the analysis of mechanical parts or sensor parts and research of balancing is performed for manufacturing a DTG. In error analysis the criterion considered during designing and manufacturing is established by quantitatively anayzing the effect of DTG performance by tolerance. And the theory of dynamic balancing is derived and unbalance is reduced through experiment. And the stiffness of flexure is verified by tuning experiment.

MANET(Mobile Ad hoc Network) is a collection of two or more nodes equipped with wireless communications and constrained by the factor of energy limitation. The running out of energy on some nodes may bring down the performance of network seriously. For solving the problems above, this paper uses completely separated Node-Disjoint multipaths from a source to a destination as many as possible. And, based on average, minimum or variance of energy values on the each multipath, the packets are distributed on paths. Generally, collecting methods for energy information can be classified into two main categories, Static and Dynamic. As the different energy values collected, the packet distribution methods are classified into six criteria, Static-Average, Static-Minimum, Static-Variance, Dynamic-Average, Dynamic-Minimum and Dynamic-Variance respectively. The performance of the packet distribution methods and that of AODV are compared by NS2 simulation.

In this paper, task scheduling and load balancing methods of multifrontal solution methods of finite element structural analysis in a modern multicore machine are introduced. Many structural analysis problems have generally irregular grid and many kinds of properties and materials. These irregularities and heterogeneities lead to bottleneck of parallelization and cause idle time to analysis. Therefore, task scheduling and load balancing are desired to reduce inefficiency. Several kinds of multithreaded parallelization methods are presented and comparison between static and dynamic task scheduling are shown. To reduce the idle time caused by irregular partitioned subdomains, computational load balancing methods, Balancing all tasks and minmax task pairing balancing, are invented. Theoretical and actual elapsed time are shown and the reason of their performance gap are discussed.

Load imbalance is a serious impediment to achieving good performance in parallel processing. Global load balancing schemes cannot adequately manage to balance parallel tasks generated from a single application. Dynamic loop scheduling methods are known to be useful in balancing parallel loops on shared-memory multiprocessor machines. However, their centralized nature causes a bottleneck for the relatively small number of processors in a network of workstations because of order-of-magniture differences in communication overheads. Moreover, improvements of basis loops scheduling methods have not effectively dealt with irregularly distributed workloads in parallel loops, which commonly occur in applications for a network of workstation. In this paper, we present a new reconfigurable and decentralized balancing method for parallel loops on a network of workstations. Since our method supplements performance balancing with those tranditional load balancing methods, it minimizes the overall execution time.

This paper presents the design of an implantable stimulation IC intended for neural prosthetic devices using $0.18-{\mu}m$ standard CMOS technology. The proposed single-channel biphasic current stimulator prototype is designed to deliver up to 1 mA of current to the tissue-equivalent $10-k{\Omega}$ load using 12.8-V supply voltage. To utilize only low-voltage standard CMOS transistors in the design, transistor stacking with dynamic gate biasing technique is used for reliable operation at high-voltage. In addition, active charge balancing circuit is used to maintain zero net charge at the stimulation site over the complete stimulation cycle. The area of the total stimulator IC consisting of DAC, current stimulation output driver, level-shifters, digital logic, and active charge balancer is $0.13mm^2$ and is suitable to be applied for multi-channel neural prosthetic devices.

Recently, smartphone, notebook, PC and other supporting wireless LAN device have come into wide use. By increasing user that use wireless LAN device, wireless traffic also increased. If wireless traffic through one AP is increase, it causes throughput decrease. To solve this problem, wireless LAN service provider install more AP where overload occurred. But this is not enough. Because stations can't know AP's load factor, and APs do nothing for load balancing. In this paper, we propose Multi-Interface Access Point(MIAP) to solve this problem. MIAP operate same as multiple APs with multi-interface, and MIAP measure each interface's load periodically. If MIAP detect overloaded interface, MIAP transfer station from overloaded interface to under-loaded interface. We conducted an experiment for verifying existing problem, and we found this problem occurred. We plan an experiment scenario for a comparison between existing AP and MIAP, and excute these experiment. In the result, we show MIAP with load balancing can improve total throughput about 72% and stabilize delay jitter than existing AP.

We proposed a load unbalancing scheduling method for energy-efficient multi-core embedded systems considering DVFS (Dynamic Voltage/Frequency Scaling) power consumption and task characteristics. It is a new kind of scheduler which combines load balancing and load unbalancing technique. The purpose of the method is to effectively utilize energy without much effect in performance. In this paper, we conduct experiments on energy consumption and performance using the previous load balancing and unbalancing techniques and our proposed technique. The proposed technique reduced energy consumption more than 13.7% when compared to other algorithms. As a result, the proposed technique shows low energy consumption without much decline in the performance and is adequate for energy-efficient multi-core embedded systems.

This research suggests a load balancing method for a volume rendering system which supports concurrent users. When concurrent users use a volume rendering server system, the computational resources are occupied by a particular user by turns because each process consumes the computational resources as much as possible. In this case, the previous method shows acceptable throughput but the latency is increased for each user. In this research, we suggest a method to improve the latency without performance degradation. Each process makes concessions for taking the resources according to the number of users connected to the system. And we propose a load balancing method in the dynamic situation in which the number of users can vary. Using our methods, we can improve the latency time for each user.
